Before Judges McClure, Mellon, Adams Uod Parke. Wednesday, Oct. 30th, 1861 Our readers, will- Temember the trial, at the June term of Court, of Robert Cowell, sr , and John Cunningham, for the mur der of David Frew, a young man about twenty«four years of age, on the night of the 8d of June last, by stabbing hirn in the right side of the neck, severing the carotid artery and causing almost immediate doith. During the trial, Robert Emmett Cowell, a grandson of the elder defend ant and nephew of Cunningham, (who is son-in-law of Cowell) about thirteen years of age, testified that while the difficulty ■was going on he ran into the house, got a knife from the kitchen table, returned and struck the fatal blow. Tbe story of the lad was evidently not credited by the jury as they acquitted Cowell and found Cun. ningham guilty of murder in the second degseo. A new trial was subsequently ap plied fqr on the ground of after.discovered testimony, corroborating the testipwny. of the lad, and granted. On Wednesday morning Cirainigham was brought in for a second tMupon the same oharge. District Attorney Miller and his assistant, Wm. M. Moffitt, Esq., conducted the.case on the part of the pros eculion, and (Thomas M. Marshall and F.‘ 11. Collier,T&qs., for tho defence. " The following jury was 'empaneled to try the cause: 1, J. B. Kennedy,-.i, Gso. Christian; 3, A. W. Buchanan; 4, Rich, ard BeStty;-fi, Robert Conway; 6, Wm. Paters; 7, Joseph Haven; 8, J. L. Card. '“neFnJT'fEvritefieese; 10, RoberfcCroighton; 11, Robert Taggart; 12, Jas. Pearson?’"' ’ The prisoner wss arraigned and plead not guilty to the charge. District Attorney Miller opened tho case for the Commonwealth, stating the facta tbe prosecution expected to prove, alleging that the circumstances all pointod to Cun ningham as huving inflicted tho fatal wound and that the boy could not have dealt the blow as sworn by him on the first trial. Dr. A. G. Waller, who made the poet ] mortem examination upon the body of de ceased, testified to the character of the •wound on the right side of the neck, as ' upon the first trial, illustrating it by en- ! gravings of that part of the body, and the artery itself, a piece of which had been cut ■ out The wound, he stated, could have 1 been made with a knife exhibited, but ! would require considerable force, owing to the dullness of the instrument at the point. A boy could not have irflicted it; it would ' require the strength of a man. The wound 1 could not have been made by a cut while ! the man upon whom it was indicted stood erect; it could have been made by a stab ' and much more readily if the wounded ' person were lying down. On cross examination Dr. Walters stated 1 that in his opinion the artery couid not have ! been cut in the manner it was, while the ‘ person injured was standing erect, with a ' knife as dull as the ono exfiibited. It is probable that a man lying on his back and ' receiving such a wound could got up before the blood would spout. Mrs. Mary Ann McKelvy testified that she resides on Bast Common, Allegheny city, two doors below Cowell’s house, whiclr runs back to an alley extending from First to Second Btreets. The hydrant in the alley stands between Cowell’s house and i l'atterson’B, next below, and is surrounded by a platform sloping towards the alley, in which there iB a gutter. About fifteon minutes before nine o’clock came down stairs; (teard a woman say “don’t,” o “let me alene;” stepped out on the porch and heard loud, angry words; started toward the noise; heard Mr. Cowell talking (she supposed) with deceased. The daughter of "Mrs. McKelvy brought a lighted candle, which she took ; wont forward and saw Cowell on lop of deceased in the alley and Cunningham at the hydrant; he was try, ing to get his wife to go in, and said “I’ll show him” or “I’ll fix him;” missed Cun ningham for a moment, but he came from the gato and went to the assistance of Cowell, raised him up off deceased and took him Into the house. Frew rose from the gutter and threw a stone, striking Mr. Cowell’s grand-eon. Frew just then said he was cut. During the fuss ho said “Two on ono’s too many.” Mrs. Leech saw part of the disturbance. After he rose up, while holding his hand to hie neck, he threw tho stone, staggered forward, his hand fell from his neck, and the blood gushed out. After she went into her own Rouse (next door,) heard Mrs. Ounninghamsay (the partition between the two kitchens beiug quite thin,) “Father.if you had come in when I wanted you to this would not have happened.” Leonard Snyder saw deceased take the stone from his pocket and throw it; imme diately after the blood spurted out upon witness’ clothing. Daniel McHendry saw deceased rising from the gutter and helped him to rise; when he got to his feet he walked to the middle of the alley, drgff a stone from his noqket and threw it, the blood gushing from his neck. It waß a minute or a min. ute and a half from the time the deceased rose until tho blood began to dew. Mr. Caskey testified to seeing deceased step back from tho gutter, with his left hand on his neck or shoulder, draw back his right hand and throw a stone at some one. Mo one was standing within several feet of deceased at the time. Officer Bowden, who assisted in the ar rest of Cowell and Cunningham, testified that on returning to ih > bnnso immediately afterwards, ho found tho butcher-knife ly» ing on the kitchen labia ; it had been res cently. washed and bad on the back a spot' like blood. Here the testimony for the prosecution rested. He was of opinion that the-wound could have been made with the knifo exhibited, without regard to the position of tbe person struck. If a person were excited and the • artery distended it wculd be more easily 1 severed. A boy of ten or twelve could inafee the wound, tbo icfl;cUon of which : would depend more upon the velocity than r the force of tho blow. A man could not live five minutes with such a wound unless . hemorrhage was amsied. Sarah Murray testified that in June last she lived on West street, Allegheny; was going down tbe board walk in the yard to the hydrant; met Frew, who calltd her “Liz;” went on towards the hydrant, Frew kicked her; she went to the hydrant and set her bucko: under, when ho drew his fist to strike her and she said ; “ My Goa; are you going to kill me ?” At this moment Cowell came out with a candle and said to Frew; 41 Do, go away;” Frew said: “No; I'll be good G—d d—d if I do; I have a better right hero than you.” Witness went in and hoard deceased give Cowell very hard words, Robert Cowell, Sr., corroborated last witness as to his going out while the girl was there with Frew and telling her to go home with her bucket. He then told Frew to go away, too, which he Baid *he would not do; he then walked backwards and fell into the gutter, jumped up and picked something up; told him not to throw. Two persons were standing near, in the middle ot the alley; Frew camo up and witness and defendant fell together into the gutter; Cunoingham came and took witness off Frew ; CunniDgham did not touch Frew that night; he could not have done so without witness seeing: him: After witness got up Mrs. McKelvy bold tho candle and looked in Frew’s face as he lay in the gutter; all now went in, John Cun ningham in front. Robert Cowell, jr., was absent and re-* turned when all tho family wore out in the alloy; saw Cunningham go towards his ; father and Frew, who were in tbe gutter, l When he looked again, Frew and David , Dalzell were standing in tbe middle of the alley and some one struck witness on the J jaw with a half brick* \ Mrs. Mary Gullis, daughter of Robert Cowell, sr., was in the kitchen; John Cun ningham was there, when his nephew, Robert Emmett Cowell, called to him khat “grandfather” wanted him. He went out; witness followed; saw tho tight in the alley; Cunningham reached down and lifted Mr. Cowell up; Frew rose and picked up some thing; some one called “take Selina (Mrs. Cunningham) in;” and witness helped Cunningham take her in. Witness did not see Cunningham touch Frew and was very olose all the time; didn’t boo tbo Knife; didn’t see the stone thrown. At this point Court adjourned until Thursday morniDg at nine o’clock.

Acknowledgment, We have been handed tne following let ter, with a iequeat to publish, and we -cheerfully comply. It is an aeknowledg ment-of tbe receipt of a number of arti cles 1 for the regiment, forwarded by some patriotic ladies to the German regiment; Camp Hunters’ Oiiatel, Va , ■) 3aih Regiment Penna. Volunteers, !• October 25th, 1801 Job. Abel, Esq —Dear Sir; Occasions rarely occur which present the opportunity of uniting duty with pleasure moro inti mately than the one which now presents itself to us of acknowledging the receipt of your favors of the 19th inst., accompanied by the therein mentioned boxes of necessa ries for the use of our regiment—a gift from the patriotic American ladies of Pittsburgh, through the kindness of Dr. Planning. The nice and just sense of pro* prietv exhibited in this exceedingly oppor tune present is shown in its peculiar adap* tation to the needs and wants of soldiers exposed to the hardships and diseases of camp life, at a season of sudden changes from extreme heat to intense cold, mingled with heavy rains and hard frosts. The gift is also peculiarly gratifying to us, inasmuch as it is a practical evidenco of the response which German patriotism for an adopted Fatherland is beginning to awaken in the American bosom. We believe it unneces sary to add that the high esteem and deep regard for the fair sex which warms every true German heart, attaches to this token of female kindness a double value, because of the source whence it is received. Al low us therefore, dear Bir, on oeh&lf of our Boldiers, to return, through you, to the fair and benevolent donors, the sincere and heartfelt thanks and gratitude of the regi* ment, and to assure them that, on our part, no effort will be spared, no danger avoid ed, to secure to them the blessings of Lib' orty and Union. Very respectfally yours most truly, A. SCHIMELFBNIG, Colonel 35th Regiment P. V. Dr. Fbahcib PrLLicnoox, Surgeon 35‘.h Regiment P. V. A Badly Arranged Freshet. —On Saturday last, a pond freshet was made on Oil creek, lo permit oil men to run their fiat'boats loaded with barrels of oil out into the Allegheny river. Arrangements not having been fully complotod or properly made, each boat pilot was at liborty lo let loose and push off into the stream at his pleasure. The consequence was that several boats pushed off at the same time, and being thrown into a “huddle,” wore driven upon bars, rocks, &c., and being so hindered, failed to get out in time. "When one ahead grounded, those following dash, ed against it, breaking it up in a fearful manner. Several of them were piled to gether in heaps; sides were broken in, ends broken to pieces, barrels thrown out into the creek, etc, There woro said to be near, ly or quitoone hundred boats on the creek, and but a small number escaped being beached, snagged or groundod. Efforts are now making to have two freshets per week, and have the boats leave in regular order. Another Spouting Well. —Another fiowing oil well was oponed on Oil creek, on Friday last. One oi the proprietors is Mr. Phillips, of the Phillips well. He, thinking that he had oil enough for the present, had, the day previous, on reach ing the third sand rock, stopped hi. drill ers. His astonishment was great when, the next morning, the well was found to be “ going it” on its own hook, it was spouting gloriously. Thu stream was turn ed into an empty boat, which was started down tho creek on the ireahet elsewhere mentioned, and was jammed up with th 9 other boats; New Gun Boat. —We understand that Mr. McCaußlin, formerly civil engineer on the Pennsylvania Kail road, has invented an iron-elad gun boat, which is said by competent authority to be far ahead, in every respect, of anything yet discovered in that line. We learn that drawings and specifications thereof have been submitted to the Government for examination, and there can be but little doubt of its adoption, if half that competent and disinterested parties say as to its merits be true. Bobbery.—On Saturday night last, the jewelry store of W. W. Biggs & Son, o. Moundsville, wa3 entered and robbed o 1 one hundred and ten dollars worth jewelry, Therobbers effected their enf trance attK) front window and passed out* atthe bacjddoor.' >A man named Henry Voss has been ' Minted on suspicion of having been bngaged in the rob^^. nfi * oni “ information received/’ United States Marshal Dougherty, ;Wsth officers Fox, Hague and Sutler, went to the residence of Dr. W. J. Smith, in Lawrenceville, between the passenger raiL way stablds and cemetery, at an early hour yesterday morning, watched the house till ,tbe family wero astir, and then entered and arrested their man. Tin Doctor was searched and a roll of counterfeit d-mes, neatly put up, found on bi 3 person. In the book-case was found a set of moulds for making counterfeit dimes and in an out house a quantity of bogus dimes and one counterfeit quarter. The prisoner was brought to the city and lodged in prison to await a bearing. ' Many of our citizens will remember that some ten or twelve years Bince Dr, Smith, then a druggist in the borough of Temper anceville, where he has until recently re> sided, was arrested on a charge of making or passing counterfeit money, that he turn ed Slate’s evidence and exposed a gang, with whom a large lot of false paper money was found; they were arrested but escaped oonviction. and he, of course, was never tried. Since then the Dr. has led a quiet life, and many who knew his early history supposed he had reformed,but he will now, perhaps, find more difficulty than before in getting out of the meshes of the law.

Oil by Flat Boat.—Mr. itiehard Clyde, of this city, yesterday received a flat boat filled with petroleum, in bulk, from Oil Creek, the first lot tbit has been successfully brought down the river in this manner, though it has boon frequently tried. The oil (some one hundred and sixty barrels) WA3 pumped directly from the well into the boat, had been tightly caulked) and tho flat was then towed to this city by the Maj.

Ho was fired upon and killed. Arrested and Committed for Mur der,— John Weaver, one of tho persons who took Mrs. Earhardt away from New myer’s house in Allegheny, last week, and took her to the stone yard where she was found dead next morning, was yesterday arrested on an information made by the husband of deceased, taken before Mayor Drum, and by lam committed to prison.

From Washington City. ■Washington City, October 30.—The Pusey arrived at the Navy Yard to-day, bringing dispatches from Captain Craven! The rebel steamer George Page has gone as far up the mouth of Quantico Creek as she can, but is not yet a mile from the river. Qhe is apparently aground. If so it will require a high tide to float her. The rebel batteries .were opened upon the Maryland ahoro yesterday and the firing continued to a late hour last night, but without damage to any body on our Bide. It is believed that no rebels have, within the last >4 hours, run the rebel blockade. It is certain that no one outside of the naval expedition know where the first blow will be struck. It is probable that the earliest concerning its operations will through Southern channels. It is understood that Gen. McClelland has issued an order for the shooting of four Boldiors, found guilty of sleeping while on picket duty. Some members of’“tho 33d New York regiment, owing to gross misconduct, to day, got into a difficulty with tbejcitizans in the neighborhood of lowinsville. Two of the f armer were severely injured. Gen. Butler arrived here to day on milis tary business. Deputy Marshal Phillips represented to the U. S. Circuit Court that ho did not servo the rules issued by that body en tbe 22d inst.. to bo served on General Andrew Porter, Provost Marshal for the District of Columbia, because he was ordered by the President of the United States not to serve the same, and to report to the Court that tbe privilege of the writ of habeas corpus has been suspended for the present, by or* der of the President, in regard to soldiers in the army of the Unitod States within this District. The Deputy Marshal re spectfully dieclaimsall intention to disobey or treat with disrespect the orders of the Court. Chief Justice Dunlop deferred tho opinion of the Court. Tbe return made by Deputy Marshal Philips on tho 20;h of October, wo will order to bo filed, though we do not doubt our power to regard it as insufficient in law, and to proceed against the officer who has made it. The existing condition of the country makes it plain that that officer is powerless against the vast military force of the Executive, subject to his will and order ft3Commander-in*Chief of the Army and Navy of the United Slates. Assum ing tbo verity of Ih'o return, which has been mad* ou oalb, the case presented s without parallel in the Judicial history of the United States, and involves the free action and efficiency of the judges of this Court. Tho President, charged bv the Constitution to take care that the laws be executed, lias seen lit to arrest the process >•( this Court, and to forbid the Deputy Marshal to execute it It does not invulvo merely the question of the power of the executive in civil war to suspend tbo groat writ of freedom, the habeas corpus. The President, wn think, assumes the responsibility of tho acts of Gen. Porter as set forth in the rule, and sanctions them by his order to Dopuiy Marshal Phillips not to serve tho process on the Provost Marshal. The issue ought to be and i-i with the President, and we have exhausted ev ery practical remedy to uphold tbe author ity of this Court. It is ordered this JOtti day of October, 18M, that this opinu-n ol tho Court bo filed by tbe clerk and made part of the record, as explaining the grounds on which we now decline to order any further process in this case. Associate Judge Marshal said: As a member of this Court urM on its bolu»lf 1 wish it understood that notwith standing tho blow levelled at this Court, I do distinctly assort the following princia pie: Ist. That the law in this country knows no superior. 2nd That tbo supremacy of tho C’vil authority over military cannot be denied. That it has been established by tho ablest jurists, and, I believe, recognized and re spected by the great father of his country duriDg the revolutionary war. 3d. That this Court ought to be respoct' ed by every one as tho guardian of personal liberty of tbe citizen, in giving ready and effectual aid by that most valuable means, the Habeas Corpus I, therefore, respectfully protest against the right claimed to interrupt the proceed* ings in this case. Arrival of the Europa. Halifax, October 30—The royal mail steamship Europa, from Liverpool on the l‘.Hh inßt., via Quoenstown, on tho 20th, bound to Boston, arrived at this port at half past three o’clock this afternoon.

The sales to speculators and exporters amounts to 12,000 bales. The following are the authorised quotations: New Orleans llj| fair; middling Mobile llj for fair apd 10,; for middling. The stock of cot ton in port is 038 500 bales, including 350,000 bales of American. Tho advices from Manchester continue favorable, prices having still an advancing tendency. Consols are quoted at 02|©92- for money. Great Britain —The Paris corrospon* dence of tho London Times writes that tho discussion as to tbo common lino of policy to bo adopted by France and England on the American question, have been again renowed. Possibly tho information brought over by the Prince Napoleon may have contributed to make the Em peror more inclined to listen to proposals which might be made by England in this respect. The London Globe gives prominence to the following paragraph: We learn from an authentic source that a notification has been issued affecting the trade with the Southern States. It would appear from the letter of instructions is sued by Mr. Momminger from Richmond, on the 22d of August, that the Confederate government authorizes vossels coming from foreign countries to enter any port on the Southern coast, declaring that such port shall be considered a proper port of entry for such vessel if tho master or man ager shalL, without delay, dispatch a mes» senger to the nearest collection district, in order that the revenue officer may be sent by the collector to take charge of the cargo and execute the formalities required in coni nection with the entry of goods. At a conservative demonstration in Es sex, Captain Jones, a member of Parlia ment, expatiated on the war in America and its effect on England. He argued in favor of the right of secession, and urged that the people of England should give such a strong expression of their sentin merits as would induce tho government to act in accordance therewith. The London Times, in an editorial on the day of humiliation in America, says that amid ali the turmoil of war, a change in the mor&lB of communities can be des« cried, and that there is a faint glimpse of a new dawn, and Bays that intelligent Americans are inclined to believe that a tilation and give no secarltyagfttnit more secession in future, wHf’be an era of abeu ,ft r and more orderlygoveruoiezit in the Northern hastes generally.. I>r. RuEßell 5 8 last letter loth© Times is dated Washington, October 4th. Id It he alludes to’the great .expedition to sail at; the end of October, and jays that the gov* ernment ig determined so open 'a cotton port, and it does not believe in the oaths of the Southerners that they willnevergive a bale of cotton to the Yankees, but think that the temptation of high prices prevail** ing will attract large supplies of cotton to the port for exportation. Thus a gov. eminent monopoly may be created in cot ton, and the strong protection will scarce* ly fail to put on the screws to foreign 00*1 tomers. The writer thinks that, for the present, the large ports of the South are tolerable safe. Prussia— The coronation of the King took place in the church of the Cattle of Konigsburg on the 18th* The splendor of the various proc ssions was very great: Italy—The Abbe Paslzlia has been sus j pended from the exercise of hii functions and his papers seized.

Half of the persons arrested have since been releass ed. It is asserted that 2,000 prisoners re maining would bo drafted for military ser vice. The clergy had closed the churches on account of their profanation by the military.

J eKKKRsoN Oity, October 30.— General Prentiss, who left St. Liuis on Sunday last, with a force of infantry to surprise and capture the rebels at Pulton in Calloway county, and returned, reports that before ho reached Pulton, Gen. Geo. B. Hendon 6on, of the State militia, had made*a com. promise with the rebels at Dyer’s mills, near Concord, by which he ommanded the United States troops, not to make any arrests if iho rebels would lay down their arms and return to their homes. Prentiss acquiesced in the compromise, but on the first violation of it will visit severe ven» goance upon the offenders. The rebels were -100 strong, and liendorson’s force numbered 1,600. The proposition for a compromise came from the rebels. From Kansas. Kansas Cm-, October 30 —Th e Santa F« mail furnishes the following additional items : About the Ist instant a company of New Mexican volunteers, under Captain Mink, was attacked in the night at Alimosa, 36 miles below Fort Craig, by 110 Texan re bsls and their horses stampeded. Captain Mink proposed to surrender his company, but bis men dissented, secured their horses, and retreated to Fort Craig. Sub sequently about 100 U :j. troops from Fort Craig pursued the rebels, overtook them, killed their Captain and ten men, wounded about 30, and killod about 30 horses. The balance of Texans excaped to Mesilla.
